A very light italic slab serif with crisp, unbracketed rectangular serifs and a clean, even stroke texture. The letterforms lean smoothly with long, slightly tapered terminals and generous sidebearings that create an airy rhythm. Capitals are narrow and elegant with restrained modulation, while the lowercase shows open counters and a steady, readable structure; ascenders feel tall and the italic forms keep a consistent slant across the set. Numerals are similarly delicate and understated, matching the text color and spacing of the alphabet.
Best suited to editorial contexts where a light italic voice is desirable—magazine features, book interiors, essays, and refined pull quotes. It can also work for understated branding or packaging where a crisp slab-serif accent is needed without visual bulk, especially at medium to larger sizes.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking classic book typography with a contemporary lightness. Its crisp slabs add a subtle editorial authority, while the slim strokes and italic angle keep the voice gentle, cultured, and expressive rather than forceful.
This design appears intended to blend classic italic text manners with the clarity and stability of slab serifs, delivering a sophisticated, readable italic for editorial use. The emphasis seems to be on elegance, consistency of slant, and a clean, spacious texture on the page.
In the text sample, the light weight and ample spacing produce a pale, refined color that rewards larger sizes and comfortable leading. The italic construction remains consistent across mixed-case settings, and the slab serifs provide clear word-shape cues without adding heaviness.
